This excerpt taken from the C 10-Q filed Aug 7, 2009. Exposure to Commercial Real Estate The Company, through its business activities and as a capital markets participant, incurs exposures that are directly or indirectly tied to the commercial real estate market. These exposures are represented primarily by the following three categories: (1) Assets held at fair value include: $5.1 billion, of which approximately $4.3 billion are securities, loans and other items linked to commercial real estate (CRE) that are carried at fair value as trading account assets, $0.1 billion of loans which are held-for-sale, and approximately $0.7 billion which are securities backed by CRE carried at fair value as available-for-sale (AFS) investments. Changes in fair value for these trading account assets are reported in current earnings, while AFS investments are reported in OCI with other-than-temporary impairments reported in current earnings. The majority of these exposures are classified as Level 3 in the fair-value hierarchy. Weakening activity in the trading markets for some of these instruments resulted in reduced liquidity, thereby decreasing the observable inputs for such valuations, and could have an adverse impact on how these instruments are valued in the future if such conditions persist. (2) Assets held at amortized cost include approximately $2.0 billion of securities classified as held-to-maturity (HTM) and $24.0 billion of loans and commitments. The HTM securities were classified as such during the fourth quarter of 2008 and were previously classified as either trading or AFS. They are accounted for at amortized cost, subject to other-than-temporary impairment. Loans and commitments are recorded at amortized cost, less loan loss reserves. The impact from changes in credit is reflected in the calculation of the allowance for loan losses and in net credit losses. (3) Equity and other investments include approximately $4.5 billion of equity and other investments such as limited partner fund investments which are accounted for under the equity method, which recognizes gains or losses based on the investor's share of the net income of the investee. 42 This excerpt taken from the C 10-Q filed May 11, 2009.

Weakening activity in the trading markets for some of these instruments resulted in reduced liquidity, thereby decreasing the observable inputs for such valuations, and could have an adverse impact on how these instruments are valued in the future if such conditions persist. (2) Assets held at amortized cost include approximately $2.0 billion of securities classified as held-to-maturity and $23.8 billion of loans and commitments. The held-to-maturity securities were classified as such during the fourth quarter of 2008 and were previously classified as either trading or available for sale. They are accounted for at amortized cost, subject to other-than-temporary impairment. Loans and commitments are recorded at amortized cost, less loan loss reserves. The impact from changes in credit is reflected in the calculation of the allowance for loan losses and in net credit losses. (3) Equity and other investments include approximately $4.6 billion of equity and other investments such as limited partner fund investments which are accounted for under the equity method, which recognizes gains or losses based on the investor's share of the net income of the investee. 36 These excerpts taken from the C 10-K filed Feb 27, 2009. Exposure to Commercial Real Estate The Company, through its business activities and as a capital markets participant, incurs exposures that are directly or indirectly tied to the global commercial real estate market. These exposures are represented primarily by the following three categories: (1) Assets held at fair value include: $5.8 billion, of which approximately $3.5 billion are securities, loans and other items linked to commercial real estate that are carried at fair value as trading account assets, and approximately $2.3 billion of which are securities backed by commercial real estate carried at fair value as available-for-sale investments. Changes in fair value for these trading account assets are reported in current earnings, while changes in fair value for these available-for-sale investments are reported in OCI with other-than-temporary impairments reported in current earnings.

Weakening activity in the trading markets for some of these instruments resulted in reduced liquidity, thereby decreasing the observable inputs for such valuations, and could have an adverse impact on how these instruments are valued in the future if such conditions persist. During the fourth quarter of 2008, approximately $3.3 billion of commercial real estate loans and loan commitments that had been included in this category, because they were classified as held-for-sale and measured at the lower-of-cost-or-market (LOCOM), were reclassified to assets held at amortized cost since managements intent for these exposures changed to held for investment. (2) Assets held at amortized cost include approximately $2.0 billion of securities classified as held-to-maturity and $24.9 billion of loans and commitments. The held-to-maturity securities were classified as such during the fourth quarter of 2008 and were previously classified as either trading or available for sale. They are accounted for at amortized cost, subject to other-than-temporary impairment. Loans and commitments are recorded at amortized cost, less loan loss reserves. The impact from changes in credit is reflected in the calculation of the allowance for loan losses and in net credit losses.
